please read the Privacy Act notice that
is available via the link in the footer of

Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
should address one or more of the
following four points:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension, Without Change, of a
Currently Approved Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Request for Fee Waiver.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the DHS
sponsoring the collection: I–912; USCIS.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Individuals or
households. USCIS uses the data
collected on this form to verify that the
applicant is unable to pay for the
immigration benefit being requested.
USCIS will consider waiving a fee for an
application or petition when the
applicant or petitioner clearly
demonstrates that they are unable to pay
the fee. Form I–912 standardizes the
collection and analysis of statements
and supporting documentation provided
by the applicant with the fee waiver
request. Form I–912 also streamlines
and expedites USCIS’s review, approval,
or denial of the fee waiver request by
clearly laying out the most salient data
and evidence necessary for the
determination of inability to pay.
Officers evaluate all factors,
circumstances, and evidence supplied
in support of a fee waiver request when
making a final determination. Each case

is unique and is considered on its own
merits. If the fee waiver is granted, the
application will be processed. If the fee
waiver is not granted, USCIS will notify
the applicant and instruct them to file
a new application with the appropriate
fee.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection Form I–912 is 594,000 and
the estimated hour burden per response
is 1.17. The estimated total number of
respondents for the information
collection Non-form Request for Fee
Waiver is 8,400 and the estimated hour
burden per response is 1.17. The
estimated total number of respondents
for the information collection 8 CFR
103.7(d) Director’s Exception Request is
128 and the estimated hour burden per
response is 1.17.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total estimated annual
hour burden associated with this
collection is 704,958 hours.
(7) An estimate of the total public
burden (in cost) associated with the
collection: The estimated total annual
cost burden associated with this
collection of information is $2,259,480.
